The purpose of this article was to review the embryologic stages of the cerebral cortex,
illustrate the classification of disorders of cortical formation, and finally describe the main MR …

Malformations of neuronal migration such as lissencephaly (agyria-pachygyria spectrum)
are wellknown causes of mental retardation and epilepsy that are often genetic. For …

Grey matter heterotopias, demonstrated by MRI, may present with a broad spectrum of
clinical severity. We have studied 33 patients with periventricular nodular heterotopias …

Subcortical band heterotopia (SBH) or double cortex syndrome is a neuronal migration
disorder, which occurs very rarely in males: to date, at least 110 females but only 11 in …

Brain malformations are extremely polymorphous, and individual cases very often escape
rigid categorization. Moreover, several malformations are frequently associated with one …

Purpose Malformations of cortical development (MCD) are a heterogeneous group of
disorders characterized by abnormal structure of the cerebral cortex. MCDs are an important …

Brain perfusion SPECT was performed in an epileptic patient with a rare form of diffuse
subcortical laminar heterotopia using"" Tc-HMPAO. MRI demonstrated generalized laminar …

We report a 10‐year‐old girl who presented with a single episode of partial complex seizure.
Neurological examination and psychological evaluation were normal …

We examined regional cerebral blood flow response in a patient with gray matter
heterotopia located beneath the sensorimotor cortex during a finger tapping task. We found …

The history of any subspecialty in the field of neuroradiology is often determined by the
prominence of personal figures who contributed to and shaped its creation. There is little …
